The SDSHAA's board of directors voted in spring 2008 to add soccer starting in fall 2010. It later delayed implementation after hearing concerns from larger schools about funding and fitting the sport in a busy calendar. The board appointed a study committee, whose report to the board this month suggests a fall season for both boys and girls and a three-year transition phase from club teams to school teams. The committee will meet again in October and present a final recommendation to the board in November. SDHSAA Executive Director Wayne Carney said a final vote by the board on adding soccer would not come until March 2010.
